Nails of my right hand painted black with yellow dots

It’s my first time trying multiple colours. How do they look?

    Very cute leopard spots vibe! You might want to consider using something like this around your edges while they’re still wet to get a cleaner line.

        Yep! I bought mine in 2007 and I’m still using it. I don’t bother filling it with acetone, I just put the acetone in a shot glass along with the corrector pen so that the nib gets soaked. It comes with an extra nib and you can also trim the nib with scissors when it starts getting a little frayed.

    Nice! You did a good job getting the base coat on evenly. You can use the end of a toothpick to get a really nice circle, or there are fine brushes for detail work available cheaply. Stickers are fun too!

    I have a similar design on right now in white/pink/blue, but image uploads are broken so I can’t share :(

    These are a great colour combo, and this is a really good first attempt! I’m incapable of anything remotely as good as this, so I’m impressed. For me the slight roughness of the dots looks like part of the style, so it definitely works. Good job!
